My store was shutdown!

I don't think this story can have ANY more irony in it. It seems that after Chugadie and I created our online store yesterday it has been shutdown by Abdul Popal who works for CafePress.Com. Here is the leter that I received: Before you read the following letter, you may want to read the previous post which will give you the whole story from HERE.

Here are the pictures that were posted on the store:
Bin Laden
Bin Laden Text
Bin Laden Big
Bin Laden Med

Also, if you do a search on Google.Com for the person's name who sent this, you will quickly learn that his name is an Afghanistan name. Is this a biased ruling? Maybe. Maybe not. I do find it extremely suspicious.

For those still brave enough to fly....

The following comes from Bryan Dotzour who recently took his wife to the Detroit Metro airport:

"I just came back from taking my wife to the airport, and I thought I'd warn anyone who is planning on flying." "DEFINITELY plan on getting there AT LEAST 2 hours in advance if not more. I dropped her off at the curb and the NWA ticket line was running down the sidewalks, in both directions.

There were armed police with dogs and several security checkpoints. Flights are going of regularly and on-time, but be prepared for a flying experience like nothing you've ever seen.

If this is what it takes to prevent the casualties we've seen this week, then I think it's worth the extra hassle."
